Learn about Homeopathy at Alternatives
Homeopaths at Alternatives, Carole and Vicky are marking Homeopathy Awareness Week with an open event on Wednesday 15th June and Tuesday 21st June from 10 a.m. to 1.00 p.m.
They will be available to answer your questions about sleep problems, among the most common ailments seen by homeopaths. According to Patient UK, one in five people report difficulties in sleeping.
Homeopath Carole Probert said: “Lack of sleep can trigger or exacerbate other health problems, and significantly impair quality of life. There are things people can do for themselves, but long-term chronic problems should be seen by a professional homeopath, who will aim to get to the root of the problem. They will look at the whole person, taking into account not just the sleep problems, but a range of other factors such as stress triggers, other health issues and personality traits.
“A medicine (known as a remedy) will be prescribed with the aim of triggering the patient’s natural system of healing. The substances used are prepared in specialist homeopathic pharmacies, using a careful dilution process, and as such they are non toxic.”
An increasing number of scientific research studies investigating homeopathy and sleep disorders have been published, with studies to date finding that homeopathic medicines affect sleeping patterns in rats, mice and college students prone to coffee-induced insomnia.
